Brandon: is there some meme or news making rounds as we speak because I read about criticality accidents only yesterday, having lived 10K+ days and now I see it mentioned again by you. I find this spookily improbable. And this isn't the first time. Once I downloaded something by accident, and decided to check it out, and found the same item in a random situation the next or a few days after that. And a few other "coincidences".

I bet it's a sim and they're having so much fun right now as I type this with my "free will".

Oh, man... criticality accident.... blue light, heat, taste of lead... what a way to go...
